Jazz bassist Linda May Han Oh stopped by our Buck Studio and provided some insights into the life of a New York musician. Along the way, she played “Lucid Lullably,” Pat Metheney’s “Change of Heart,” and “Slow Boat to China.” She’s in Madison in conjunction with the Mead Witter School of Music Annual Jazz Festival being held on the UW campus from April 25-28, 2017.
Linda Oh was born in Malaysia and raised in Perth, Western Australia. She began playing piano, bassoon and at fifteen dabbled on electric bass playing jazz in high school bands. She graduated from the Western Australia Academy of Performing Arts and received her Masters at the Manhattan School of Music where she now teaches.
